In the middle of a storm, and half in a trance, Charley Deacon pulls wreckage ashore from the ocean. Then a mysterious ship appears on the horizon - but only some people can see it.
Charley is now a practiced magical user, but she's still unprepared for what she might uncover: a dangerous piece of history, a restless ancestor, and an archeological discovery that isn't quite what it seems.
Faced with an impossible decision, Charley takes action into her own hands, but the results risk alienating her from those she's closest to, and threaten the sense of belonging she's found in the tiny coastal settlement of Inver Aora.
